Chapter 130 - Devil Welcoming Ceremony, Mysterious Mystical Power
"Senior, I can't agree with you. No one in the mortal world cultivates harder than me!" Han Jue frowned.
Zhang Guxing was stunned after checking. "You've already reached the Mahayana Realm? How many years has it been…"
Not only was his talent in the Sword Dao peerless, but even his cultivation talent was also so terrifying?
Zhang Guxing couldn't help but reevaluate him.
Han Jue cupped his fists and bowed to him. Then, he walked past him and continued forward.
This time, Han Jue wanted to see how far he could go!
Zhang Guxing turned around and looked at his back.
For some reason, he felt that Han Jue was different from before.
He… was no longer like a mortal.
…
Under the dark clouds, there were broken walls and ruins. Above the ground, Daoist Nine Cauldrons led the cultivators of the Jade Pure Sacred Sect forward warily.
Liu Bumie, Guan Yougang, Fairy Xi Xuan, and Xing Hongxuan were among them.
"This is the Demonic Path Imperial City? It looks so dilapidated!"
"It's said that the fiendish cultivators go crazy from time to time. The Fiend Emperor can't be bothered to fix the city each time."
"Strange, where are the other righteous sects?"
"I feel the same."
"Everyone, be careful. The demonic path is full of tricks!"
The cultivators of the Jade Pure Sacred Sect whispered to each other. Everyone held their Dharma treasures tightly, not daring to relax.
Xing Hongxuan looked up. The sky at the end of the dark clouds was blood-red. A huge city could be vaguely seen at the end of the rolling land.
She frowned, feeling uneasy.
Liu Bumie followed Daoist Nine Cauldrons and whispered, "Sect Master, did you notice something strange?"
"What is it?"
"There seems to be no end to fiendish cultivators."
"What?"
"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be more fiendish cultivators than the righteous path. However, after fighting for decades, there are still fiendish cultivators everywhere. In addition, the figures of the righteous path cultivators seem to be decreasing."
Daoist Nine Cauldrons's expression changed. "You mean…"
Liu Bumie's expression was grave. "The situation has worsened. I suspect that a force of the demonic path is causing the righteous cultivators to fall into the demonic path. Along the way, haven't we encountered many fiendish cultivators who have gone into Qi Deviation?"
Daoist Nine Cauldrons shuddered. He could no longer remain calm.
He looked around nervously at the ruined city. Corpses could be seen everywhere. He suddenly felt like he was being watched.
"Why don't we retreat? There's no need for us to slaughter our way to the Demonic Path Imperial City." Guan Yougang came over.
Although the Jade Pure Sacred Sect was the number one sect in the Great Yan, it was barely third-rate in the world.
The sect's influence in such a decisive battle was minimal.
Daoist Nine Cauldrons stopped and turned around. "Everyone, retreat with me!"
He leaped up and flew in the direction he had come from.
Boom!
A figure fell from the dark clouds and crashed into the dilapidated street, raising a cloud of dust and rubble.
As the dust settled, a burly figure appeared.
It was none other than one of the five fiends, Fiendish Arhat!
The moment they saw him, the expressions of Daoist Nine Cauldrons and the others changed. They could sense how powerful the other party was.
Fiendish Arhat slowly opened his eyes. He placed his right hand in front of his chest and said, "Amitabha. Where do you want to go? Since you're here, let's enter the demonic path together!"
…
Inside the Connate Cave Abode.
Han Jue's consciousness returned to his body.
Spirit Qi surged into his body and his cultivation began to increase.
This time, he went beyond Grand Unity and advanced twenty steps!
The Heaven Earth Mystic Yellow World Piercing Sword Finger achieved a qualitative evolution!
Under his comprehension, this Mystical Power's 'World Piercing' ability was improved in the area of trajectory. Sword Qi could fly out and pierce through space, shooting into the distance. It was similar to teleportation and spatial relocation. As long as one's divine sense could capture the other party, they could shoot from afar!
Han Jue was very satisfied.
Regardless of whether it was close or far, the Heaven Earth Mystic Yellow World Piercing Sword Finger had endless destructive power. He believed that not many in the mortal world could withstand it.
Han Jue took out the Book of Misfortune and started cursing Ji Naihe, Vermilion Bird, and Daoist Jueyan.
No matter how strong he was, he couldn't stop his daily missions!
While cursing, he checked his emails.
[Your good friend Daoist Nine Cauldrons was captured by a fiendish cultivator.]
[Your good friend Fairy Xi Xuan was captured by a fiendish cultivator]
[Your Dao Companion Xing Hongxuan was captured by a fiendish cultivator.]
[Your disciple Su Qi has escaped Qi Deviation. His divinity has completely awakened and his cultivation has increased greatly.]
[Your grand-disciple Fang Liang was attacked by a fiendish cultivator] x4679
[Your grand-disciple Fang Liang was severely injured. Fortunately, the divine beast saved him and brought him into a Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.]
[Your good friend Mo Fuchou was saved by your good friend Mo Zhu and escaped the seal.]
[Your good friend Huang Jihao was captured by a fiendish cultivator.]
…
So many of them were captured!
Han Jue frowned. Even Guan Yougang, Liu Bumie, and the others were captured.
What happened?
Han Jue immediately connected his consciousness to Xing Hongxuan's puppet.
At this moment, Xing Hongxuan and the cultivators of the Jade Pure Sacred Sect were imprisoned in a hall. All of them were in low spirits.
This hall was very vast and contained tens of thousands of cultivators. Han Jue also saw Huang Jihao.
Huang Jihao sat in a corner, his hair a mess. He was in an extremely sorry state.
What was going on?
Han Jue sent a voice transmission to Xing Hongxuan through the Heavenly Puppet, "What happened? Send a voice transmission to your storage ring. Don't speak!"
Xing Hongxuan was frightened by the sudden voice, but when she heard Han Jue's voice, she immediately calmed down.
"We were captured by Fiendish Arhat…" Xing Hongxuan sent a voice transmission to her storage ring and began recounting what had happened.
Against one of the five great fiends, Fiendish Arhat, the group from the Jade Pure Sacred Sect was naturally not his match.
Daoist Nine Cauldrons and Liu Bumie were crippled by a single punch.
Thankfully, Fiendish Arhat did not want to kill them, so they survived.
"The four fiends seem to be capturing righteous cultivators. It's said to be related to the Devil Welcoming Ceremony."
"Welcoming?"
"The Fiend Emperor seems to have an unspeakable secret. It's said that he was summoned to the mortal world. He might try to summon devils."
"In other words, you might be sacrifices?"
"Yes, husband. This time, we are doomed. Let's be husband and wife in our next lives."
"Where's the Heavenly Immortal Manor?"
"I'm not sure."
Han Jue fell into deep thought.
What happened?
He had thought that the righteous path had the upper hand, but from what Xing Hongxuan said, it seemed that the demonic path was winning.
There was also the Devil Welcoming Ceremony. Could it be that they were summoning the Ancient Devil Race?
The more Han Jue thought about it, the more nervous he became. He comforted Xing Hongxuan and stopped contacting her via voice transmission.
At this point, he had no choice but to take action!
When the devil race arrived, the world would be even more chaotic. Han Jue didn't want his cultivation to be disturbed.
Han Jue lifted his right hand and raised his middle finger. He muttered, "It'll be up to you, then."
Dao Comprehension Sword faced him and imitated his right middle finger. She asked him, "Master, what does this mean? The hand action of a Mystical Power?"
"Yeah, I can't use this Mystical Power easily unless I'm about to die."
"What's the point, then?"
"It'll make you feel better before you die."
"What?"
Han Jue ignored Dao Comprehension Sword and walked out of the cave abode.
